While much of the team's braintrust was in Miami on Wednesday, the New Orleans Saints also had scouts in Columbia, S.C., to work out offensive guard A.J. Cann, according to Yahoo Sports and other reports.

South Carolina's pro day was a relatively quiet affair on Wednesday after running back Marcus Lattimore and defensive end Jadeveon Clowney drew big crowds in recent years.

Cann, a 6-foot-3, 313-pound guard, started 51 games for South Carolina and is usually ranked among the top 10 or 12 offensive linemen in the NFL draft.

The Saints starting offensive line is probably set for 2015, although the Saints could draft someone like Cann to challenge Tim Lelito for the starting job at left guard and potentially take over for Jahri Evans in 2016.

I must be the only one who doesn't like him. I hear time and time again that he's our best, and I say that's why we are in such bad shape if he's our best But I'm no line coach not even close. It's when I just zone in on his play, he seems to get beat or not block worth a damn. But I do realize that he is the best we have, if not he would be a backup to someone else. But please draft a replacement. That is all I want from my Christmas list.
